I am trying to set up my 20.1 Magnepans for optimum set up. Recently installed Grant's Mye stands, have the speakers 5 ft from front wall and am trying to gauge what the appropriate angle of speaker to center listening position.
Here is the issue... If the wife and I are sitting on the couch, neither of us is in the exact center of the speakers.
Since I am left of center, the singer is always off to the side...
So, the big question. When 20.1's are set up properly, what is the width of the sweet spot so that someone on the left or right of center is able to experience an optimum experience.....
Moving these speakers now is not an easy task since I now have spikes into the carpet.
Your guidance is appreciatedAfter reading several responses....are most of you living with a highly focused small sweet spot of right smack dab in the center ????
